Saw these, but they were pulled off soon after being listed, good buy maybe for someone.

Think your right, they probably made him a slightly over the starting bid, and he thought it was a good price.

Tend to agree, they look like they could have been a real bargain. But when you can get new ones for sensible money now I doubt I would have bothered getting them myself.

The curse of the ebay busybody strikes again!

No doubt some pillock e-mailed him & said "Oh you don't want to list them like that, they are really rare & sought after original Cooper Car Co Rosepetal wheels, list them like this & you'll get fifty times as much for them".

What is the point?

I thought the whole reason people go on ebay is to find a little bargain.

Not that you find many on there nowadays!
